We got another new girl this week and today all but 5 of us went back to Kruger. Today I'm in charge of the Guinea Fowl and Sun Conures. Yesterday we gave the cats (2 Servals and a Caracal) a bath and they were not particularly happy about it. The Caracal (Azeke) had ringworm at one point so now most of the girls here have it as well (hand sanitizer is my new best friend). We also started building new owl and cat pens yesterday. This week we had a policeman from the endangered and protected species unit come talk to us about his work in stopping the smuggling of animal products. He also showed us how to make casts of footprints and showed us how his dog can sniff out things like rhino horn and elephant tusk. We also had a state vet come talk to us about preventing the spread of foot and mouth disease out of Kruger Park and working with the surrounding communities.
